Hi, I‘m Pranav Nedungadi (a.k.a. npv12)!
I am a Software Developer at Dream 11
My passion lies in backend engineering, where I excel at creating scalable and maintainable softwares. I am also a dedicated advocate of open-source development, enjoying the process of building high-quality web applications that positively impact users‘ lives.
I spend my free time learning new technologies and continuously challenging myself to enhance my skills and stay current with the latest industry trends.

I engineered a multi-cluster GKE deployment system using Karmada, developing two Kubernetes operators in Go to overcome GCP's performance bottlenecks by automating load balancerprovisioning and routing updates. This platform-building extended to the network layer, where I built Fabric, a custom service discovery system in Go for hybrid workloads. At Blaze AI, I not only built a stateful workflow engine that drove 50% of revenue, but also cut AWS costs by 80% through rigorous monitoring of slow queries, data pipeline optimization, and strategic database indexing.

I developed various website features like Tweet library, Discord analytics, Quests and Rewards, and segment exclusion. I redesigned the social search feature, boosting usage by 20%. I built and deployed Lambda functions and step functions for Twitter Listening, and an XMTP-based messaging infrastructure, enabling secure communication. I added reCAPTCHA support and measures to prevent web scraping and unauthorized access. Additionally, I addressed customer concerns, solved issues, and implemented feature requests.

As a founding engineer, I led the design and deployment of an adaptive assessment platform from scratch. I developed the backend using FastAPI, SQL, and pandas, and implemented TDD using pytests and pydantic. On the frontend, I used React to create features like Authentication, User Dashboards, LaTeX-supported questions, and Analytics. I managed GCP hosting, ensuring a scalable infrastructure that handled 10k concurrent users.
